Connect Cloud Accounts

After Multicloud Defense Controller is provisioned, the Connect a Cloud Account page opens and you can connect any of the types of cloud accounts that are shown to the Multicloud Defense Controller.

The first step is to onboard a set of one or more cloud accounts. This allows the Multicloud Defense Controller to interact with each account by discovering inventory and traffic, orchestrating security deployment, and creating and managing policy.

Follow these instructions to connect your cloud accounts:

• AWS

• Azure

• GCP

• OCI

Enable Visibility

Afer onboarding your cloud accounts, enable traffic visibility for that cloud account. In Multicloud Defense in Security Cloud Control, click Enable Visibility.

Enabling traffic visibility provides awareness into the traffic flows within the Cloud Accounts by collecting VPC/VNet Flow Logs and DNS Query Logs. The Flow and DNS Query logs are used by Multicloud Defense to understand traffic flow, correlate with threat intelligence feeds, and provide insight into existing threats that can be protected using Multicloud Defense.

Enabling traffic visibility is a different process for every cloud account type, but typically you will need to identiy account characteristics such as your cloud account's region, VPC/Vnet you want to monitor, network security groups, and a cloud storage account for logs.

View Traffic on your Cloud Account

Now that you have enabled traffic visibility, view traffic moving through your cloud account, and look for malicious traffic that needs to be protected against.
